2019年英語六級翻譯練習(xí)：閱讀書籍

　　請將下面這段話翻譯成英文：

　　來自利物浦大學(xué)的科學(xué)家、心理學(xué)家和英文教授發(fā)現(xiàn)，閱讀莎士比亞及其他古典作家的作品對心智發(fā)展大有裨益。這些作品能夠抓住讀者的注意力，引發(fā)讀者的自我反思。研究還發(fā)現(xiàn)，閱讀書籍，尤其是詩歌，可以增加與“自傳體記憶”有關(guān)的大腦右半球的活動頻率，有助于讀者根據(jù)閱讀內(nèi)容對個人經(jīng)歷進行反思和重新評價。學(xué)者們表示，這意味著閱讀古典作品比閱讀自助類書籍更有幫助。

　　參考譯文

　　Scientists, psychologists and English academics at Liverpool University have found that reading the works of Shakespeare and other classical writers has a beneficial effect on the mind, catches the reader’s attention and triggers moments of self-reflection. The research also found that reading poetry, in particular, increases activity in the right hemisphere of the brain, an area concerned with “autobiographical memory”, helping the reader to reflect on and reappraise their own experiences in light of what they have read. The academics said this meant the classics were more useful than self-help books.
